Job Description
Chef de Partie - New Opening!
We are proud to be recognised as one of the best places to work in Hospitality. Looking after people is at the core of what we do and we work hard to make life at Dishoom the best it can be. Since 2010, our restaurants have celebrated the Irani cafes and all of the food and drink of Bombay. Plus, we have a range of kitchens to ensure our guests can enjoy our food at home!
Alongside running busy sites with large teams, we also believe in doing more. Each year, we pledge to plant a tree for every Dishoom-walle, continue to break down barriers through our cultural events, and support children through our Meal for a Meal initiative. As of this year, we have donated 30 million meals (and counting) to children in the UK and India, with every Dishoomwalle contributing 55 meals per shift to this cause.
We are looking for a Chef de Partie/Tandoor Chef to join our new opening team in Leeds!
How we’ll support you
At Dishoom, we care about supporting you and your well-being (inside and outside of work). With this, we tend to think about our team’s well-being in four different ways:
Financial
Free weekly wage advances and emergency cash.
Access to our savings support & financial health planning tool.
Up to 50% off when dining at Dishoom with friends and family.
Mental & Physical
All Babus (Managers) are fully trained in mental health support & First Aid.
Dedicated support from our confidential advice helpline - available to you or someone in your household – 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.
Free fitness sessions every month (including yoga and spin classes). Plus, discounted memberships with leading gyms and studios.
Calling all sports fans, we have our very own Dishoom Premier League (an in-house cricket tournament) where you get to compete with your team at Lord's, and an annual Dishoom Football league that runs across our cafés and Permit Room teams.
Social
We’re a growing company and love nothing more than bringing our teams (and families) together to celebrate everyone’s hard work across the year.
You’ll be invited to our:
• Family Mela (Family summer festival)
• Huge Christmas celebration
Plus, we host regular team events across our cafes.
• Team members who work at Dishoom for 5 years are invited to attend Bombay Bootcamp – an educational trip to Bombay to learn about our unique food, culture and heritage.
What to expect:
• £37,500 per year inclusive of tronc. We pay on a monthly basis.
• A full-time role working across 5 days, Monday - Sunday availability required.
• We're an all day dining Bar-cafe, meaning our teams work a variety of daytime and evening shifts (not the usual always late nights!)
• Access to our award-winning training programmes and support. We focus on your development from day one and proudly promoted 211 Dishoomwalles last year!
• The usual number of days holiday a year - paid for, including tronc. Our sites are closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day, and if you have children, we’ll provide one extra day to take them to their first day at school.
• We'll provide the Chef whites!
Have you got Seva?
We believe we are at our happiest when we are contributing to the world to the best of our abilities. This goes beyond just serving people, we take them in and truly look after them. Guests and team alike.
So, what are we looking for?
As a Chef de Partie:
• You will be on point for the preparation of our Tandoor or Curry section.
• You know the way around a Tandoor oven like the back of your hand and have perfected the preparation of our marinades.
• You will support the team on the pass by helping to receive orders coming in, and ensure we have the most first-class approach to food wastage.
At Dishoom - everyone is welcome. We are committed to having an inclusive and diverse workplace and strongly encourage people from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to apply for roles with us.
